Sibiu - This company is also known as Active holidays. Valentin was such a great guide! In a very calm way, he explained historical facts, events, personalities from Romanian history. But it was even beyond the scheduled plan trying to accommodate our interests and curiosity to the general plan. It was a fantastical experience. As a frequent traveler I can tell you, this was one of the most memorable guided tours I have taken.
